England's most capped men love rugby. Ben Youngs is a scrum-half so he’s spent most of his 127 games chatting away to team-mates, opposition and referees. His mate Dan Cole is still in the England squad, and has cult hero status thanks to his no-nonsense approach to most of life’s events. They’ve spent 20 years together at Leicester Tigers, toured together for the British and Irish Lions, and now ... more

I can’t believe I’ve just discovered this
Listen to a lot of rugby podcasts but this is becoming one of my favourites. Enjoy the way Ben and Dan provide smart insight without trying to be comedians. I enjoy bit banter but some other podcasts filled with inane public school boy humour by guys who aren’t as funny or interesting as they think they are taking over each other. Though there is good banter and the hosts have charisma on these podcasts it’s well balanced with smart insight. Don’t change a thing guys. Certainly filled gap in th... more
This was the third podcast interview with Andy Farrell I listened to on the same day, but was definitely the best of them. The way Youngs interacted with him l, seemed to put Farrell at ease and made for a much more interesting and detailed show. I enjoy the “banter” on other shows but keep coming back to FTLOR for the rugby analysis as well as the stories.
Your rugby is amazing I have a season ticket for tigers also i watch prem final I will never forget you amazing people
Coley and Young’s content is quality and timing is great. They always have a podcast at the right time, for example right after big games and then a few days after too. Quality chat and content, all about the rugby with a bit of banter. It shows they put a shift in, put the pod first and for me as a result of that are now the number 1 rugby podcast. Keep up the good work gents.
